The Returning EX (Sophia and John)

Matilda was surprised that Belinda found out about it. “H-How did you find out?” she stammered.

Belinda looked at her, not a hint of anger shown. “Have you ever thought of the consequences?” she asked calmly.

Matilda didn’t know how to answer that since she truly never thought of the implications; she only wanted to vent that time.

Belinda sighed. “Just get a divorce. Whether you’re a good match is not up to me to judge, but we can’t pay for your shenanigans anymore, Matilda.”

“No, I won’t,” Matilda said. “I won’t get a divorce, never!”

After placing the album back to where it belonged, she turned around. “Your mercenary has sold you out. If the news outlets know about this, you should know how disastrous it can be.” Putting on a smile, Belinda continued, “You hired a man for this task? I think what you had in mind wasn’t just a simple beat up.”
